Closed Shooting Star

[Penelope Marshall]

Penelope couldn't help it, she was crying as she sat in her bed at the hospital wing. It wasn't because of the bludgers, even though they hurt. It was just this whole situation. Here she was at her final game at Hogwarts, and she was knocked out in only a few minutes. She wiped at her eyes fruitlessly but the tears just kept on coming. She could only hope Bailey could save the team now.

 

[Todd Cobbler]

From the stands, Todd watched Penny be taken out of the game. He wished he could apparate within the grounds to be with her in an instant, but instead he was stuck scrambling out of his seat and side stepping past spectators, some were actually cheering that his girlfriend had been injured. Screw them, he thought, Todd just had to find Penny.

He navigated the decent then ran hard, straight back up to the castle and to the hospital wing without stopping. At the doorway he caught sight of her wiping away tears. His chest heaving, he breathlessly mustered, "Penny," sympathetically. He crossed tp her side offering comfort.

 

[Penelope Marshall]

Penny han't expected anyone to show up at the hospital wing so quickly. She looked up, then hid her face in her hand as she saw it was Todd. She was probably all blotchy and red and she didn't want him to see that. "Is the game over? Did we lose?" She asked, her voice muffled by her hands.
